Carolyn Evans-Dean review ARkstorm: The ones that made it.

Just when I thought I was prepped and ready for most of the basic
disasters, Ron Foster came along with another one to keep me awake at
night, an ARkStorm!

In this story, Foster introduces us to some
new prepper characters. Mark is a teen whose attempts at preparedness
are often pooh-poohed by his parents and sibling. Despite their
disinterest, he does find a kindred spirit living next door. Jack, the
neighbor, provides some guidance and even offers up a few pieces of
survival gear that are difficult to afford on a 15 year old teen's
allowance.

As a storm of near biblical proportions unfolds, the
author throws a few complications into an already difficult situation
for his characters to navigate.

While I don't live in an area
that is prone to such a storm, I am appalled at the lack of preparedness
that exists among the emergency management officials in the book and in
real life. There is no feasible plan to address an ARkStorm and most
people don't even know what one is. It has been two hundred years since
the last ARkStorm and scientists say that another one is due in the near
future. While predicting the weather isn't an exact science, it would
be prudent for an emergency and evacuation plan to be compiled for the
state of California.

I've read the reviews by Foster's critics
and still have to give ARkStorm four stars for content. Only Ron Foster
endeavored to ferret out and disseminate fact-based information about a
very real threat to a large portion of our population. Don't shoot the
messenger...just ask your elected officials what the plan is. The life
you save may be your own!
